Conserving energy is our collectiveresponsibility for a better tomorrow.

1. Introd uction

The Governmen t of Ind ia is comm itted

to meet the growing energy needs at

affordable rates required to meet the

objectives of economic developm ent.

To d eliver a su stained econom ic

growth rate of 8% to 9% through 2031-

32 and to meet life time energy needs of

all citizens, India needs to increase its

primary en ergy supply by 3 to 4 times

and electricity generation capacity

about 6 times. As a result energy

service d eman d growth rates will keep

on increasing because of accelerated

industrialization, urbanization, and an

emerging consumer society.

Direct designated consumers to :

• Designate or appoint certified energy

manager in charge of activities for efficient use

of energy and its conservation.

• Get an energy audit conducted by an

accredited energy auditor in the specified

manner and intervals of time.

• Furnish information with regard to energyconsumed and action taken on therecommendation of the accredited energyauditor to the designated agency.

• Comply with energy consumption norms andstandards, and if not so, to prepare andimplement schemes for efficient use of energyand its conservation.

Prescribe energy conservation building codes forefficient use of energy and its conservation in

commercial buildings.State Governments to amend the energyconservation building codes to suit regional andlocal climatic conditions.

Direct owners or occupiers of commerciabuildings to comply with the provisions of energyconservation building codes.

Direct mandatory display of label on notifiedequipment and appliances.

Specify energy consumption standards for

notified equipment and appliance.Prohibit manufacture, sale, purchase and importof notified equipment and appliances notconforming to standards.

2. Energy Conservation Act, 2001

(52 of 2001)

Ø

Ø

The Energy Conservation Act, 2001 came into force

with effect from 1st March, 2002. The Act empowers

the Central Government and in some instances the

State Governments to:

Notify energy intensive industries, other

establishments and commercial buildings as

designated consumers.

Establish and prescribe energy consumption

norms and standards for designated consumers.



ØOperationalising EC Act by StrengtheningInstitutional Capacity of State DesignatedAgencies (SDAs).

ØEnergy Efficiency in Small and Medium Enterprises(SMEs) Scheme.

ØContribution to State Energy Conservation Fund(CECF) Scheme.

ØInstitutional Strengthening of BEE.

The scheme seeks to build

institutional capacity of the newly created SDAs toperform their regulatory, enforcement andfacilitative functions in the respective states.

The proposal seeks to promoteEnergy Efficiency in SMEs during the XI plan. Manyenergy-intensive SMEs clusters located in variousstates of the country have large potential for energysavings.

This scheme is intended to be

submitted in FY 2008-09 after the above scheme forinstitutional strengthening takes off in states. SECF isa statutory requirement and is one of the keyelements of the ECAP.

The proposaseeks government funding for infrastructurecreation that is necessary for BEE to implement 8new projects/ schemes through the country with anallocation of Rs. 502 crores during the XI plan.

Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), is coordinatingvoluntary efforts under this scheme to provide high-quality CFLs to domestic consumers for about Rs. 15 pelamp, i.e., at a rate comparable to that of incandescen

bulbs. This would remove the barrier of high CFL price(which is currently Rs. 80 to 100 per lamp) which isconstraining its penetration into households. It targetsreplacement of about 400-mil lion incandescent bulbs inuse in the country, leading to a possible reduction ofabout 6,000 MW of electricity demand, and a reduction

of about 24 mil lion tones of CO emissions every year2

The price reduction would be achieved by utilizing theClean Development Mechanism (CDM) of the KyotoProtocol through which the CFL suppliers would earnCertif ied Emissions Reductions (CERs) on the basis of theCO emissions reductions that would occur because o2

the low electricity consumption of CFLs compared toincandescent bulbs. BEE has prepared a programme oactivities (PoA) covering the entire country to reducetransaction cost and attract private investment for

delivery. It is also undertaking the entire monitoring asper the approved CDM methodology (AMS-II.C) andbearing the cost.

5.2 Standards & Label ing Scheme

5.3 Energy Conservation Build ing

Code & Energy Efficiency in Existing

Bui lding SchemeThe government of India launched Energy Conservation

Building Code (ECBC) on 27th May, 2007 to se

minimum energy standards for commercial buildings

ECBC is intended for new

commercial buildings

having a connected load

of 500 kW or contract

demand of 600 kVA and

above. These codes define

n o r m s o f e n e r g y

requirement per square

meter of area and takes

into consideration, the

climatic regions of the

country where the building

is located .the major

components of the building which are being addressed

through this code are walls, roofs and windows; lighting

systems ,HVAC systems ,electrical distribution systems

,water heating and water pumping systems . Mandatory

compliance of the ECBC is expected to yield annua

saving of approximately 1.7 bill ion units .

The state governments have the flexibility to modify

ECBC to suit local or regional needs.

a) Creating adequate technical capacity- pool o

ECBC expert Architects/ Engineers.

b) Training material in the form of User Guide & Tip

sheets.

c) Facilities for material testing/ certification.

d) Initiation of outreach activities through workshops.

e) Providing Technical Assistance for taking up pilo

projects in states.

f) Training workshops in all climatic zones of the country.

g) Simplified compliance procedures for state and loca

bodies.

e n e r g y s a v i n g

potential of 23% to

46% in end uses like

lighting, HVAC etc .

Under the first phase

of energy efficiency in

t h e g o v e r n m e n t

building program,9

government buildings

were covered and theident i f ied energy

efficiency measures

were implemented

through the ESCO route. In Phase-2 of the Programe,

17 Government Buildings have been identified and

taken up for implementing Energy efficiency measures.

a) Promotion of Energy Service Companies (ESCOs);

particularly for existing buildings.

b) Accreditation of ESCOs to improve investorconfidence.

c) Standardized performance contract documents for

ESCO s.

d) Innovative financial instruments to promote energy

efficiency in existing facili ties.

e) Setting up of partial risk guarantee fund for risk

mitigation.

f) Guideline for conducting investment grade audits in

government buildings issued.

5.4 Agr icultura l (Ag DSM) andMunicipal (Mu DSM) Demand Side

Management (DSM) Scheme

Ag DSM promises immense opportunity in reducing theoverall power consumption, improving efficiencies ofground water extraction and reducing the subsidyburden of the states without sacrificing the serviceobligation to this sector. It also presents a promisingprospect of targeting subsidy to the beneficiary farmer.In terms of electricity saved, given that most of the pilotprojects as well as other studies project potential savingsof 45-50% by mere replacement of inefficient pumps,the overall electricity savings (from 20 million pumps) isestimated at 62.1 bill ion units annually.

Mu DSM also assumes significance given that theMunicipalities consume 10% of energy overall and thecost input of energy is as high as 60% of the costs incurredby the municipalities. Energy costs constitute up to 60-70percent of an Indian municipality's total cost of pumpingwater to its residents. This financial constraint, coupledwith inadequate or antiquated infrastructure and the lack

of adequate managerial and technical capacities, greatlylimits the ability of municipalities to improve water serviceswhile allowing inefficient usage of electricity. The electricitybills of the municipalities accounts for a significant part ofits expenditure, given that an estimated 10% of electricity isconsumed for urban water pumping. The cash starvedmunicipalities are, therefore unable to meet the servicedelivery standards that are fast growing urban areademands. The fact that efficient water delivery systems cantranslate into measurable energy savings due to reducedpumping requirements and improved performance isvastly unknown to most of the municipal authorities.



The in tended outcomes of the scheme are:-

a) Business model linked to subsidy reduction.

b) Shelf of bankable DPRs to be prepared -10 in

each states to stimulate the market.c) Baseline development, conducive regulatory

regime and payment security mechanism beingworked out.

d) Awareness and outreach to local and municipalbodies.

e) Manual for Mu DSM launched to be used topromote standard contract documents to enableeasier implementation.

f) Risk mitigation measures for encouraging PPPbeing evolved.

g) CDM benefits for the scheme being put in.

State Designated Agencies (SDAs) are statutory bodies

set up by states to implement energy conservation

measures at state level. SDAs are expected to play threemajor roles namely:

As a Development Agency

As a Facilitator

As a Regulator / Enforcing body

The main emphasis of the scheme is to build capacity

necessary to enable them to discharge regulatory,facilitative and enforcement functions under the Act,given that the institutional capacity is limited both interms of human and infrastructure resources. Moststates have notified SDAs in the last 2 years.

5.6 Energy Efficiency in Small andMedium Enterpr ises (SMEs) Scheme

Ø

Ø

Ø

Ø

Ø

The proposed scheme seeks to promote Energy

Efficiency in SMEs during the XI plan. Many energy-

intensive SMEs clusters located in various states of the

country have large potential for energy savings. In

quantitative terms, there is little reliable information and

data available with respect to their energy consumption

and energy saving opportunities. BEE in consultation

with Designated State Agencies, will initiate diagnostic

studies in 25 SME clusters in the country and develop

cluster specific energy efficiency manuals/ booklets andother documents to enhance energy conservation in

SMEs. The scheme seeks to provide comprehensive

energy efficiency solutions to 25 SME clusters by:

Conducting energy audits in these clusters.

Preparing DPRs from energy audit studies.

Enhancing the capacities of service providers in

each cluster area.

Provision of financing for such bankable DPRs.

Awareness and outreach.

The scheme seeks to develop and implement Energy

Conservation Action Plan (ECAP) based on a uniform

template evolved for taking measures necessary to build

institutional and human capacity, enabling the SDAs toimplement energy efficiency programmes and

undertake evaluation and monitoring of the Energy

conservation activities implemented in the state. ECAPs

are being developed for various states and till now 28

states have already completed them.



5.8 Institutional Strengthening ofBEE and other Energy Efficiency

Institutions

Ø

The proposed scheme seeks to provide resources

allocated during the XI plan for:(a) Setting up of

Energy Conservation Information Center (ECIC)

christened BEEnet as a web enabled online data

collection and collation system. The project will

provide the following facilitation functions that BEE/

SDAs are accredited with:

Web based online system that facil itates seamless

filing of returns by the Designated Consumers as

required under section 14 (k) and 14 (l) of the

Energy Conservation Act. The notification of the

same has been issued by Government in March,

2007 and the returns will be required to be filed

before the State Designated Agencies from FY

2008-09.

5.7 Contr ibution to State Energy

Conservation Fund (CECF) Scheme

This scheme is to be taken up in FY 2008-09 after theabove scheme for institutional strengthening takes off

in states. SECF is a statutory requirement and is one of

the key elements of the ECAP. The scheme will provide

contribution to SECF after it is notified by states and

will be pari-passu with the contribution made by the

states. The effort will be to create a pool of financially

sustainable activities for SDAs (like training

programmes, fee for services, etc) which can

augment the fund.

The in tended outcomes of the scheme are:-

a) Investment grade energy audits (bankable DPRs)for about 10 units in each of the 25 clusters.

b) Template for DPR preparation for the balanceunits in clusters, given their similarities.

c) Adequate provision of expertise for the localservice providers to help reach out to the units.

d) Availability of financing by capacity building ofbanking personnel in matters like projectappraisal of performance contracting.

The energy performance codes would provide a

definite method of field testing of utility equipment inthe designated consumer premises. BEE has

developed manuals and codes on seven technologies

(equipment), namely, lighting systems; dryers;

cogeneration plants; electric motors; electric

transformers; fluid piping systems (network);

insulation and air conditioners/ chillers (HVAC).

Manual on Municipal DSM has also been prepared to

mainstream the activity.

The Government has launched a National Campaign

on Energy Conservation 2005, on 14th December,

2004 to make people aware about the need of energy

conservation and benefits to the individual, society

and nation as a whole. A postage stamp on energy

conservation was also released by the Hon'ble Prime

Minister as a part of the national campaign to help

create a movement for the energy conservation in the

country. A multi-media over arching general

awareness campaign is targeting the domestic,

commercial, agricultural, industrial and educational

sector will be launched. The main M/ s will be :

Spreading information about energy situations,

simple energy saving methods that can be applied

in everyday life. This is intended to serve as a

foundation for project specific campaigns.

Present a wider variety of energy conservation

methods to improve energy consumption

behavior, including prevention of energy wasteand leakage.

Information about power and oil situations and its

rising prices and effectively meeting this challenge

through energy savings and substitution.

Involvement of SDAs in the outreach

programme.

Salient features of action which are being

undertaken and/ or planned for this year long

program for the various sectors are as under:

i Industrial Sector

ii Commercial Sector

Awareness campaign is focusing on this sector

through the organization of workshopsseminars and holding the sector specific

programmes in order to provide platform for

the industry to exchange information, bes

practices on energy conservation and updation

on the various innovative energy efficien

technologies being employed in the country

Top Management of Industry has been

encouraged to declare their commitment by

declaring their Energy Management Policy. This

would greatly help the energy conservationmovement.

Electricity is used for the lighting as well as for

heating & cooling purposes. The issue in the

sector will be addressed effectively through prin

media through insertions on tips to save

electricity, organization of small workshops

and demonstration of energy efficient lightingsystem in the Trade Fairs etc.



iii Agricultural Sector

iv Domestic Sector

Campaign to be taken up with the assistance of

Agricultural pump set manufacturers and other

stakeholders. Advertisement on the tips to save

energy in the agriculture sector has been

prepared by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency,

which is being used in local languages as well.

Help of print media, school children and lighting

equipment manufacturers is being sought in

organizing the campaign. Brochures on energy

efficient lighting systems and simple tips on how

to save electricity are printed and beingdistributed. Tips on saving energy are being

7.1 Painting Competition on Energy

Conservation

Ø

Ø

The Ministry of Power and BEE have taken up aninnovative scheme to target children.

Children are an important target group as well as

stakeholders in increasing awareness.

The salient features of the scheme are as fol lows:

The painting competition is first conducted at the

School level and two best paintings from the

participating school are included in the concerned

State & UT level. First two winners from each State

and UTs are invited to participate at the national

level.

The children studying in the standards 4th and 5th

are eligible to participate in the painting

competition. The winners of State Capital city

painting competition level and National painting

competition level are suitably awarded with cash

prizes and all children participating in the

competition at school, state and national level are

given certificates of participation.

The painting competitions have been conductedfor schoolchildren for 4th and 5th standards, at

School, State and National level which have not

only made aware the children about the need of

conserving energy but at the same time educated

and involved their parents as well in the above

cause. About 24,300 schools took part in the

Competition in 2007.

Till now over 12 lakh children have participated in

the competition since 2005.



7.2 Energy Efficiency and

Conservation in School Education

Ø

Ø

Ø

The Act provides for the preparation of educationalcurriculum on efficient use of energy and its

conservation for educational institutions, boards,

universities or autonomous bodies and coordinates with

them for inclusion of such curriculum in their syllabus.

Under the school education program a pilot Project was

undertaken by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency for the

school children and as a result of BEE's efforts, NCERT

has revised 9th standard science book of the NCERT

scheme by incorporating text on the energy

conservation.

The Bureau of Energy Efficiency, Government of India

implemented a school education programme on energy

titled BEACON ( Building Energy awareness on

Conservation) in ten states across India. The objective of

this programme was to:

Create awareness amongst children and their

parents on energy competitiveness and energy

security at the individual level on a smaller scale.

Provide guidance to treachers in order to maximize

excellence in energy education process.

Enhance learning of students and sensitize them on

key energy issues that will impact their lives.

The school education programme also covers other

activities such as promoting practice oriented

programmes and projects on energy conservation,

arranging competitions among schools on energy

conservation, conducting essay and painting

competitions for school children, instituting awards and

prizes for children.

8. Promoting Energy Efficiency in

Public Procurement.

The Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), anautonomous body under the Ministry of Power is

responsible for promoting energy efficiency

through various regulatory and promotiona

instruments and to develop policy and strategies

with a thrust on self regulation and market

principles, within the overall framework of the

Energy Conservation Act, 2001 with the primary

objective of reducing energy intensity of the Indian

Economy.An Enabling Policy Framework with Guidance from

Ministry of Finance/Power/ CVC is being evolved

This includes possible incentive regime of

awardi ng/ recognizing publ ic sector EE

procurement initiatives by MOP/BEE. It will also

target upscaling of Standards and Labeling

programme to provide unambiguous guide to

agencies for EE products.

Easy to use template including pay back periods

for EE products, LCCA, etc.

Amendment of procurement rules (if necessary

to explicitly mandate EE procurement.

IT enable tools for analysis of costs.

Training and capacity building of procuremen

officers and maintenance personnel.

Single tender bidding process should be enabled

for the efficient products for which there may not be

many manufacturers – BEE’s labels may be the

benchmark for this.

BEE will come up with draft guidelines for LCC

analysis for MOP/MOF/ CVC/C&AG.

The following road map is being developed:•

Develop an action plan for promotion of energy

efficiency purchase in India.

Procurement process should be made mandatory infavour of 3 star and above for the products for which

standards are available.

In-house analysis prior to bidding will help toanalyze the LCC and decide the costs.

Format ion of workgroup consist ing ofrepresentatives from Ministry of Power, Finance,CVC, C&AG, DGS&D, CPWD, etc under thecoordination of BEE to recommend relevant

modifications.

Creation and dissemination of standard protocolsfor M&V.

Sensitization of key stakeholders like CAG, CVCabout the M&V protocols to improve post decisionscrutiny for EE procurement.
